Windows from Ichepuckesassa to the strawberry era
The community now called Plant City has carried three names — Ichepuckesassa, then Cork under an Irish postmaster, then Plant City once Henry Plant's railroad arrived in 1884-85 — and its window stock spans from that railroad-era construction through the decades of strawberry-industry growth that followed the 1890s citrus freezes.
What that means for a window project
An older Plant City property's window openings should be measured rather than assumed, spanning everything from railroad-era construction to the decades of strawberry-industry growth that followed.

What helps a Plant City window estimate
Note window count, frame material, and age, and whether the home dates to Plant City's railroad-era or strawberry-boom construction.
